Quantitative Applications in the Social Lisrel Approaches to Interaction Effects in Multiple Regression, Book 114, (Paperback)

Through the use of engaging and detailed examples, the authors guide the reader through the use of the computer program LISREL to show how it can be applied to the analysis of interactions in regression framework. The authors consider a wide range of applications, including qualitative moderator variables, longitudinal designs, and product term analysis. They describe different types of measurement error, and follow this discussion with latent variable representations of measurement error that serve as the foundation for the analyses described in later chapters. They then offer a brief introduction to LISREL and show how it can be use to execute the analyses. Readers can use this book without any prior training in LISREL, and will find it an excellent introduction to analytic methods that deal with the problem of measurement error in the analyses of interactions.
